At this point they should trade him, it would be awkward if he just showed up in that lockeroom after snubing his team over money.

Good point, the Habs are fairly solid on D with a couple real good prospects. I would certainly entertain offers for PK if I was them. I can really see the Flyers making presenting an offer sheet as they are getting desperate. The only thing holding up that offer sheet right now is the cap.

Only way to get Subban via offer sheet would be to grossly over pay him, IMO. Don't see the Flyers doing that.

Grossly overpay, you mean Grossman?

And the fact it will be matched. If Fyers tried to lure PK it would have to be via trade. Couturier would 100% have to be involved and Habs know Flyers are desperate so would require more.

You guys can forget an offer sheet. Is PK worth $6-7-8 million a year? No he isn't. So what sort of contract will a team offer him? Likely looking at $4-5 million per season which is a contract Montreal is simply going to match. habs want a bridge contract but that doesn;t mean they cannot afford a longer one.

Only way Subban goes to another team via an RFA contract is if that con tract is so ridiculous.

So what sort of package would it take for a fan base who are drawn towards flashy players. Bergevin would have to acquire an absolute super star or else the fan base would turn on him so quickly.

i'm not sold on 'coots' being the second coming of christ. some people say that years from now they will rename the selke after him, personally i see him as more of a saku koivu-ish potential
